The Great Prize

Devotional from Joel Nagel - Lansing Area Church of Christ

Scripture: 1 Corinthians 9:24-27

Have the kids act out this scripture as you read it. Talk about how being a Christian can be hard. Learning to obey can be hard and it takes a long time to change sometimes. What is something you are having a hard time with right now? Talk about how God is patient and we are patient as parents but we also want you to change. Talk about things the parents are trying to change. Talk about the difference between a sprint and a marathon. How can we train ourselves to overcome and grow?

Activity:

Have races, relay races, do silly challenges, wrestle and have fun. Let your kids know that you are in it for the long haul with God and that we are going to receive a great prize. Give them some kind of treat at the end.

PRAY as a family for growth and perseverance.
